Many around the world are saying that the 2024 Olympics Opening Ceremony was a mockery of Christianity with its alleged drag queen parody of Leonardo Da Vinci’s “The Last Supper.” But others, including the organizers of the Paris Olympics, have insisted that it wasn’t on purpose. So, what’s the truth? Glenn reviews that moment, along with others that he believes were clearly anti-Christian. Why is nobody talking about the golden calf that was on display?! Between the calf, the inclusion of the Greek god Dionysus, and the Last Supper drag show, Glenn says one thing is clear: “This is a pagan ritual.” But hey … at least Celine Dion was amazing!

GLENN: Okay. So, Stu, what have you seen, because you didn't watch it. What have you seen?

STU: A bunch of stuff, I wish I hadn't seen.

GLENN: Yeah. Okay.

STU: You know, dudes, with beards. Doing a lot of dancing. A recreation of the last supper with genitals flopping out of undershorts.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: You know, I -- it was all stuff that -- I mean, I guess there were some sporting events, as well, tied to this in some way.

GLENN: Right. I haven't seen anything about those sporting events.

STU: It was disgusting.

GLENN: Okay. Okay. So here's what's being said. What's being said is there was a golden calf on the main stage.

And no explanation of it. There was a recreation of the -- of the Last Supper. And people have been saying, that wasn't a representation of the Last Supper.

But even the director. The guy who was the artistic director for the whole thing said, I'm not the first one to use that image. And to change it.

I mean, the Simpsons have done it. Everyone has done it.

Okay. So now we know that that was the Last Supper. Then there was this picture of this -- of this woman, with her head chopped off. And it was a very, you know, fire and brimstone kind of thing. But that was about the French Revolution.
Then there was a -- a really interesting party, that -- that went on.

That seemed I don't know. Kind of pagan. But that was the point, they say.

And then there was a pale writer. A writer that was dressed in carrying the Olympic flag, and he was on a pale horse. And he was dressed in pale armor.

And he was riding the horse, on the Seine. Now, let me tell you that -- let me first give a review of the opening.

Celine Dion ended everything. And it was one of the most powerful moments I've ever seen. She sang I don't know. Some Frenchy French song about, you know, if you only love me right now, that will be fine.

Whatever. But it was -- it was powerful. And it was powerful because she conquered all odds. She was diagnosed with stiff person syndrome. Where your body just stiffens up and you can't move it.

And she was incredible. And she had her on the second level of the Eiffel Tower. They used the Eiffel Tower as a back -- as a backdrop for much of this.

And it -- I've never seen the Olympics, ever. I've never seen anybody, do anything like what they did in Paris. And making the entire city a stage.

It was beautiful, powerful. Cost them $150 million. So if it wasn't beautiful and crazy, outrageous, in a good way, you would wonder what they did with the $150 million.

But I kept saying all the way through it, I cannot imagine what this costs, to put on.

I'm surprised it was only $150 million.

Now, let's take the imagery. And let's take it two ways. Let's take it as what the Olympic Committee said it was.

That -- that writer and the horse is the -- I don't know. The -- the God of the Seine River. That this was all about the history of France, which it was.

And it had nothing to do with mocking Christianity. Well, I would say, that you could read it that way. Absolutely.

Like the horse, you could read it as the pale rider, or you could read it as, you know, the spirit of the Seine. Fine. And I won't argue about that.

You could read it either way. But there are some things here that you cannot read any other way.

One, the golden calf, on the main stage, facing the Eiffel Tower. There was a golden bust of the bull. And then there was the golden calf, beneath that.

It was never mentioned. Why?

If you watched the -- the segment with the Lord's supper, it only was on the frame for -- on the TV for about two or three seconds.

Now, I want to show you that it's not just Christians in America, and conservatives that are all upset.

Could you please play the video that we got from -- I don't remember what. One of the social services. Where they're in France.

And they're watching it. And are these French people watching that scene. Watch.

Hands on their faces. (foreign language)

Now, head in the hands. (foreign language)
(laughter)

GLENN: So even they were a little shocked by it. Maybe they thought it was funny. But their expressions show that they were also kind of embarrassed that that would be happening. The -- the announcers never said anything about even that being a table, other than the runway has been fashioned from a banquet table. And then they passed over that scene. Well, that scene was carefully constructed to look like the Last Supper. There's no way you can deny that. The positions and everything else. However, it's all drag queens. So all of the apostles are a drag queen. And Jesus is a fat lesbian.

And there was a child at the table. And if you look at a screen grab, you can see the man behind her. His testicles are escaping, and wandering about.

It was -- it was truly horrifying, if you look at it as the last supper. It is mocking God.

And as I said last week, we are no longer chasing God out of the public square. That's been done a long time ago.

We're now taking him bound and gagged to our public square. Tying him to a pole. And mocking him every day. That doesn't end well for any civil disobedience.

I don't believe that everybody had seen this. The director had kept a lot of it a secret. So nobody knew what everything meant, or why it was done.

But that was clearly done. As were the golden calf, to say that this is a pagan ritual.

Now, the guy -- the little blue guy is the -- is the God of wine. He is also the -- the God of the theater. Eventually.

It's -- I think it's Dionysus.

Dionysus. Dionysus is the Greek God of wine, which goes into France.

But also, of this -- of ecstasy.

And they used to have rituals. This cult gathered around him. And it was a festival, which is said that this is what this festival was supposed to represent. Which was really decadent and evil.

I mean, let's just be honest about it. It was just evil, the way it happened. In fact, it was so evil the way it happened. In fact, it was so evil that in 186 B.C.E., the Italians banned this god. And that festival.

It was not good. So you can't just say that this is something that is, oh, well, this is -- this is just the god of wine.

He's also the god of ecstasy and ecstasy without any shame. He is also the god that you would see on old theater marquees, with the grapes over his head. He's also the God of the pagan theater.

So he comes out to be served. And they have an orgy. While there is a fashion show, that was going on with men in dresses and -- it was just all gender-bender. It was just all basically, that whole scene, and much of the night was, we reject all the norms of God.

We object and will mock everything that people say is -- is good. And we will mock those who are offended by this.

I believe this was some sort of an -- I would have to talk to Rabbi Daniel Lapin into find out.

But I would like to hear his opinion on this. Because I think this was a pagan ritual that we just don't understand, because we're too far away from it.

But this is a -- a gauntlet, thrown down, in trance.

Now, why would you do this?

People would say, and I've heard them say, why would they do this? To all of the Christians in the world. There's almost 2 billion Christians in the world.

Yeah. But if your country was being taken over by Islamists. And they were already on the streets, saying, how decadent and perverse of a society you are. Why would you put that on full display?

This was a gauntlet that was thrown down.

And I don't think it's going to end well.

So congratulations, Celine Dion, for taking that $8 million to stand up and sing. You were amazing. But the rest of it was highly, highly disturbing.
